Aprotinin US Special Access Protocol

June 20, 2014 updated by: Bayer

Aprotinin US Special Access Protocol: An Open Label, Non-Comparative Treatment Protocol for the Use of Aprotinin in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Requiring Cardiopulmonary Bypass Who Are at Increased Risk of Blood Loss and Transfusion

This is a special access protocol that will allow physicians access to aprotinin during the temporary marketing suspension. The program will provide aprotinin for treatment of surgical patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) who are at increased risk of bleeding and transfusion when, in the opinion of the treating physician, the patients require it, there is no acceptable alternative therapy, and when there is a clearly favorable benefit-risk for the drug in that individual patient.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients 18 years of age and older

  • Patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass in the course of coronary artery bypass graft surgery who are at an increased risk for blood loss and blood transfusion. These patients may include the following:

    • Patients receiving preoperative antithrombotic drugs (e.g., clopidogrel, aspirin),
    • Patients undergoing repeat CABG or complex CABG procedures,
    • Patients undergoing urgent or emergent CABG procedures,
    • Patients who refuse to receive allogeneic blood products for religious or other reasons,
    • Patients undergoing primary CABG with advanced age or multiple comorbidities such as preoperative anemia, coagulopathies, diabetes mellitus, and peripheral vascular disease
  • The physician has determined that no acceptable alternative comparable therapy is available for the patient and that there is a clearly favorable benefit-risk for the drug in that individual patient
  • Documented, signed, dated informed consent obtained prior to entry into the study

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with a known or suspected previous aprotinin exposure during the last 12 months. Aprotinin may also be a component of some fibrin sealant products, and the use of these products should be considered when evaluating previous aprotinin exposure
  • Patients with a known or suspected allergy to aprotinin.
